"Autonomous sensory meridian response (ASMR), sometimes Auto Sensory Meridian Response, is an experience characterized by a static-like or tingling sensation on the skin that typically begins on the scalp and moves down the back of the neck and upper spine. It has been compared with auditory-tactile synesthesia and may overlap with frisson.

ASMR signifies the subjective experience of "low-grade euphoria" characterized by "a combination of positive feelings and a distinct static-like tingling sensation on the skin". It is most commonly triggered by specific auditory or visual stimuli, and less commonly by intentional attention control." (Wikipedia)

Those of you not familiar with ASMR, and unsure if you are among those who experience it, can search for "ASMR triggers" on Youtube and watch some of the multitude of videos that explore common triggers. Make sure to use headphones, and maybe turn the sound up a bit.

So, since ASMR is something that only some of us experience, I guess there should be some chart indications. What do you think? I'm very easily triggered myself, lots of different stuff will give me the shivers and tingles. My best guess is that it's connected to aspects that indicate sensitivity and/or sensuality. So I'd expect some kind of Moon/Neptune/Venus interactions maybe?

I'm not into that, but a Taurus I know, is. He listens to things to help him relax, but he told me that parts of the community can be creepy.

He's Taurus/Taurus/Leo, with Venus/Jupiter in Pisces, square Neptune in Sagittarius.

I can't say that I've found any part of the community creepy as of yet... But my 8th house Taurus Venus isn't easily shocked so it might be that I don't notice. Some of the roleplay stuff is kind of odd I guess... I don't get as triggered by that type though so tend to avoid. Anyway, yeah Taurus can definitely be very sensual! And Venus in Pisces, with Jupiter in mutual reception with Neptune looks sensitive in a very pleasant way.
